Drugs, alcohol and tobacco abuse affects everyone.

That is why the Butler Eagle, the Butler County Drug and Alcohol Program and the Butler County District Attorney's office have joined together to produce this special publication.

It is intended to educate youths and parents in Butler County on drug and alcohol issues so they can protect themselves and their loved ones from becoming victims of drug and alcohol related tragedies.

More facts on the dangers of substance abuse can be found on the Butler Eagle Web site: www.butlereagle.com.

If you have questions, call the drug and alcohol program at 724-284-5144 or the county's drug tip line at 866-363-3784.
